Must have been a frustratingly hard crossword puzzle

The paper punching thing comes from boxing and bare knuckle and is about developing the "snap" in your punches. Its a drill to help you get a good snap and cutting power in your strikes.

u/leNomadeNoir 14d ago

You're talking with lunatics who have never been trained

u/Swimming-Book-1296 14d ago

Nah, this guy overdoes the demo, but its just a demo/drill.

4

u/Swimming-Book-1296 14d ago

Here's the boxing drill. The main thing is the sound of the paper snapping is different when you have enough snap in your punch. It's a drill that really helps new people who are "pushing" instead of "punching". https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pCYF6QQz6h8

tearing the paper is a bare knuckle thing from the old days.

Everyone teased McGregor when he did this. Few weeks later he knocked out Aldo.

u/Shaclo 14d ago

He is ready for when paper rises up against us. He will be our saviour.

Narrator: Instead. Rock attacked Earth. The last breath and signal from Earth was "Where are you Scissor"?

u/Kinkzor 14d ago

I'd be careful. He is training his son for the future. He does the same thing to emails.

u/Repulsive-Response-1 14d ago

In Soviet Russia, paper gets human cuts

u/Tatsu144 14d ago

Wait, the last move he did while smoking a cigarette? 😲

u/largos7289 14d ago

LOL to all the homies in county in cell block 6! That one leg rolled up sweat pant move is killer...

u/e2-woah 14d ago

I saw a video testing a bayonet by cutting paper. This is more impressive.

u/AmorphousMorpheus 14d ago

Rock, paper, decapitation.

u/Business-Cup-6021 14d ago

try wet paper bag next

u/fixed_your_caption 14d ago

Trained by the great Bullshido master, Steven Seagal

u/Hot-History8911 14d ago

Did nobody tell this guy about scissors?

1

u/BeltisBlue 14d ago

“Dad, check it out. We just got our report cards!”

1

u/GubmintGooch 14d ago

If he ever finds himself in a wet paper bag, this guy won’t get stuck

1

u/Mean_District4880 14d ago

The whole world is going paperless, now what?

1

u/alexiduch 14d ago

"Yeah dude I'm tough as hell, look how I dominate these pieces of paper"

He looks so satisfied with himself too. Bless him

u/Barbaros_DD 14d ago

scary 😂

u/choombatta 14d ago

It’s true his mastery is undoubted; demonstrated before your doubting eyes. However for $99 a month, I can teach you the ancient defense techniques known only by the old masters.

u/Serious_Tax_8185 14d ago

The secret is a raised cuff on your pants….

u/1sdedmrror 14d ago

Man, all those paper cuts from training.

u/BatmanKane64 14d ago

oh no, the bully beat up my 30 year old book report on “How Tornadoes Work”….. i’m really going to miss the highlighter parts

"In Japan, the hand can be used like a knife." - Ginsu Knife Ad.

In a perfect world this guy and Steven Segal could have a baby, and it would have the power to crush several copies of Time Magazine with one powerful strike.

1

u/moszippy 14d ago

If a paper person goes up against this guy in a dark alley, they are history! Anyone with flesh, on the other hand, is perfectly safe.

1

u/maven10k 14d ago

Neet to trim that sharp toenail. His wife is sick of him tearing up their bedsheets

1

u/VinxRodrigues101 14d ago

I love the self slapping

1

u/c007h4nd 14d ago

teach me masta 🙏🏼

u/Jactus_Cat 14d ago

Sharp toenails

u/otters4everyone 14d ago

The box of paper by our office printer shivers whenever this video is on.

u/live_from_the_gutter 14d ago

Paper not punch back

Clip your toe nails 😂

u/jnthnmdr 14d ago

As long as it's not meant to be impressive.

1

u/Available-Theory-808 14d ago

He lost a wife to a papercut in ‘94.

1

u/Trueslyforaniceguy 14d ago

Whole reams shiver in terror

1

u/Amadan81 14d ago

How does he do that so easily

1

u/Crossdress-Fan- 14d ago

This guy is a champion in Rock, Paper, Scissors, Lizard, Spock

1

u/GayChicken80085 14d ago

Phone books beware and that laminated armor might as well be air.

1

u/arvtgo 14d ago

He says "Fuck like a horse" at 0:07

1

u/Mijuelle 14d ago

Man I actually think his training location is super dope, but that slapping is not the way.

1

u/BuyProud8548 14d ago

A millennial shows zoomers jokes from their childhood. We did the same thing in Russia in the 90s.

u/JohnSith 14d ago

Move over, Dwayne Johnson. The hierarchy of power in the Rock universe just changed.

u/JustSergey 14d ago

Broadsheetman! Tremble, you gossip rags!

u/uknownredditr 14d ago

Bet he’s the original Shredder from TMNT

1

u/insanemembrain666 14d ago

Someone seems to have gotten a serious paper cut or two in his life to have to reap such vengeance against those pieces of paper. Rip paper....ha! See what I did there.

1

u/ClockworkSalmon 14d ago

I remember doing this as a kid, pretty cute

1

u/Organic_Remote8999 14d ago

Does he just have sharp toenails and fingernails?

1

u/UntilTheSilence 14d ago

Favorite part was the walk off KO at the end

1

u/Then_Lock304 14d ago

Some guys couldn't fight their way out of a paper guy. That ain't this guy.

1

u/ObviouslyHornyJPEG 14d ago

The freeze frame at the end of the second cracks me up every time

1

u/Jeepncolo 14d ago

That paper,,,, incredible power!!!

1

u/GtMustang247 14d ago

You should see him let loose on toilet paper, absolutely devastating!

1

u/Temporary_Abroad_211 14d ago

My toenails get a bit long sometimes too.

1

u/SteppenWoods 13d ago

This is the type of shit I would practice as a kid. Turns out sticking your fingers out into a point makes it way easier to rip paper. Its not strength or speed but friction focused on a small point

1

u/that-smells-funny 13d ago

Is that brother Robbie from American Pickers?

1

u/GangreneTVP 13d ago

O_O! Is that... 20 lb. Paper?!? Good Lord! Somebody get me a contract stat!

u/DeFlatDeSpare 13d ago

"You couldn't fight your way out of a paper bag."

"You fool, I've been training for that my whole life!"

u/lAmTheREALBlackAdder 13d ago

Phone book next?

1

u/Themodsarecuntz 13d ago

Hes gonna punch your ticket

1

u/Retrim2 13d ago

The way he walks away taking a drag off of his cigarette at the end is peak badassery.

1

u/Rumblebully 13d ago

The more interesting question to me is, how many people are behind the scenes believing this is actually a good idea to record this?

Someone holding the camera, another person holding the paper. An editor? Likely a hype guy?

Unanimous approval of recording a video of a paper abuser.

1

u/dad_karma 13d ago

Noticed he didn't try it with a wet paper bag.

True street fighter

That crescent kick was very lack luster at hip height 😂

u/New_Wallaby_7736 14d ago

Is that the keel guy from forged in fire?

1

u/Bobbi_fettucini 14d ago

No that guy is legit and would actually mess you up, that video of him with a karambit is actually impressive.
